May all beings be free, safe and protected, and know peace and joy! We need to wake up and rise up for the wellbeing of all living beings and act from the wisdom of inter-being to dislodge the fascist capture of the US government.

ICE's increasingly aggressive tactics are unacceptable and dangerous. They do not make us any safer. I’m calling for an independent investigation right now — this abuse of power must end.

Senator Padilla makes an excellent point: if the FBI and Secret Service were willing to physically remove a Senator they had just escorted into the room, force him down on the floor and cuff him because he tried to ask a question What do you think they & ICE do to regular people?

I watched a screener of this from PBS — it airs next week. Highly recommended. www.pbs.org/wnet/america...

The President is involved in a shakedown racket for personal profit. He's not even bothering to hide it.

The Justice Department is now abandoning voting rights lawsuits that it filed under the previous administration.

The Senate has officially surrendered to Trump's crypto corruption. Lawmakers turned a blind eye to the largest, most flagrant corruption in presidential history and passed a bill to legitimize Trump's massive scam. Embarrassing.

Autocrats follow a predictable playbook. Learn how we can disrupt their rise before revolution or civil war become the only solutions... hartmannreport.com/p/fourteen-s...

While we wait for the Supreme Court to rule in a critical redistricting case from Louisiana, this is what the GOP is up to in Texas and Ohio. Remember the GOP's plan is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Slight disagreement. They DO change. The malignant symptoms get WAY worse!

Important new @gelliottmorris.com reading of polling: "Republican voters are between two and three times as likely to support military action against Iran as Democrats are" As I've been arguing (see thread below) the idea of MAGA as "antiwar" is a myth. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/the-myth-o...

Chris's journalism at Law Dork is indispensable. Any time I am asked "how do I stay up to speed on the courts," I recommend Law Dork. Subscribe (if you can!) to support his indispensable work!

hey question what has happened to trump's immigration numbers?

Interesting. NYC Bar statement on ICE mask wearing ... www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

It’s increasingly clear that Mark Carney misled Canadians about how he was going to approach the United States and wants to govern as a CEO instead of as a prime minister accountable to parliament in a democratic country.

Hi. I’m a local journalist in Denver, Colorado. My weeknight program @nexton9news.bsky.social focuses on politics and policy. I work for good people at 9NEWS and TEGNA who support accuracy, accountability, and truth telling.

Ah, but no one involved has a reputation to be destroyed! #checkmatelibs

Trump Has Never Been Anti-War; He’s Not Even Anti-War inside the USA talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/trump...

This made my day

NEW: Meta CTO Andrew "Boz" Bosworth and leaders from OpenAI and Palantir have joined a detachment intended to make the US Armed Forces "force leaner, smarter, and more lethal."

A poll with no undecideds is usually a low quality and/or low ethics pollsters. The Fox poll, tho, is a quality poll and their new one is 46% approve, 54% disapprove for Trump. So literally no one is undecided. Which frankly sounds about right but is still pretty amazing.

I feel proud.

"The United States interest in this conflict does not come from a place of genuine moral feeling or concern for fellow humanity..." Hunter Dunn of #50501 movement on #IsraeliranWar With @goldbergradio.bsky.social - from @bylinetimes.bsky.social pod.fo/e/2e8111

Even George W Busy and Dick Cheney got congressional approval for Iraq. Trump is about to become more of an extreme and lawless warmonger than Bush and Cheney.

Personally, if I were threatening to deploy my troops to occupy Manhattan, I probably wouldn't compensate those troops by making their wives and kids live in literal tenements.

The Supreme Court is set to issue opinions in the 16 remaining cases it heard this term, including: ⚖️Birthright Citizenship/Nationwide Injunctions. ⚖️Louisiana Redistricting. I founded Democracy Docket in 2020 to keep you informed. Sign-up now for free. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

Our Autocracy Handbook is made even more timely by this horrifying account of the deportation of an Australian writer. So depressing that we need to think about this stuff. www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...

Happy to announce that the book "Russia under Putin," edited by Andrew Natsios has just been published. I had the honor of contributing a chapter on “The Role of Power and Wealth in Putin’s Russia”. www.press.jhu.edu/books/title/...

INDEPENDENCE WITHOUT TYRANNY 🇺🇸 JULY 4th, 2025 🇺🇸 NO KINGS 2.0 🔥 #SheShed

the only reason CBS hasn't folded and paid Trump his bribery money yet is California threatened an investigation into whether such a deal would violate state bribery laws, which chuck here "forgets" to mention

Imagine what happens when your bank account becomes cryto’s bailout fund. DOGE also axed a lot of FDIC employees as one of its first orders of business. With everything happening all at once, it’s easy to miss this part in the stablecoin bill the U.S. Senate just passed 👀

“A company called Frontier Valley wants Donald Trump to declare a ‘national security emergency’ so it can take over part of Alameda Point in the San Francisco Bay and build a privately run, AI-focused tech city.”

DUE PROCESS is in the Constitution That means if you are arrested you go to court even if you are undocumented Then if found guilty if you are undocumented you get DUE PROCESS at an immigration hearing which determines if and where to deport you What Trump is doing is denying DUE PROCESS

Hot take: the way Tucker grills Ted Cruz in those clips should be the rule not the exception. If more of the media did this we would be in a much better place* (* = It should go without saying that we are not and never will be Tucker fans)

If you’re not outraged, if you’re not in the streets, if you’re not calling your representatives and your senators, you’re NOT PAYING ATTENTION!

The takeaway from the Tucker Carlson Ted Cruz interview is that the American public has been so badly cheated for so long by the people pretending to be the political media that when anyone asks a basic follow up that an 8th grade schoolpaper reporter would it feels like cutting edge journalism

I don’t care what city or town you live in. If these guys jumped out of an unmarked van and grabbed you on the street, would you just assume they’re ICE or FBI? Would you willingly comply with their orders and get inside the van? THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. THIS IS NOT AMERICA.

Oh, hahahaaaa! As The Felon “hissy fits” away from Canada in the dark of night (and Iran had nothing to do with it), Zelenskyy got his chair. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 😆😆😆

First SCOTUS opinion today. Over nuclear waste storage. It's 6-3 with Gorsuch, Thomas, Alito dissenting. Thankfully the Nuclear Regulatory Commission is still allowed to exist. Basically it's Common Sense 1 -- James Ho 0.

Get the federal troops out of L.A. Now.

Senate Republicans are preparing to give yet another tax cut to the ultra-rich and wealthy corporations. And they are going to pay for it by raising costs for working class Americans. What we need is REAL tax relief for families — not for billionaires.

With the 2024 election cycle over, states should take the opportunity to streamline, clarify, and reinforce their guardrails to both prevent and more efficiently resolve future election certification disputes. Here’s what they can do:

"...likely the largest single sale of national public lands in modern history to help cut taxes for the richest people in the country."

Thoughts on Israel’s Iran Campaign and Donald Trump talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/thoug...

who had Tulsi Gabbard & Tucker Carlson as voices of reason on their bingo cards? anyone???

We keep hearing credulous pundits say MAGA is "antiwar." So how many MAGA Republicans will support the new resolution requiring Trump to get congressional authorization for war with Iran? This resolution is important. People should pay attention to it. 1/ (link) newrepublic.com/article/1969...
